    I have this theme almost finished but have on single.php pages the following errors stop validation. I have been at this all day trying to figure it out and just can’t. Any ideas?

    d’oh almost forgot url http://www.breadnroses.ca/inprogress/2008/05/hello-world/

    # Error Line 378, Column 6: end tag for “div” omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified .

    </body>

    You may have neglected to close an element, or perhaps you meant to “self-close” an element, that is, ending it with “/>” instead of “>”.
    # Info Line 67, Column 0: start tag was here .

    <div id=”wrap”>

    # Error Line 378, Column 7: XML Parsing Error: Opening and ending tag mismatch: div line 67 and body .

    </body>

    ✉
    # Error Line 380, Column 7: XML Parsing Error: Opening and ending tag mismatch: body line 62 and html .

    </html>

    ✉
    # Error Line 380, Column 7: XML Parsing Error: Premature end of data in tag html line 2 .

    </html>

    You don’t have enough </div>s there.
    Here’s what I like to do to check myself:

    <div id="wrapper">
<div id="masthead">Masthead contents</div><!-- /masthead -->
<div id="main">
<div id="content">
<h3 class="storytitle">Title</h3>
<div class="post">
Blah blah blah
</div><!-- /post -->
</div><!-- /content --?
<div id="sidebar">
sidebar contents
</div><!-- /sidebar -->
</div><!-- /main -->
<div class="clearer"></div>
<div id="footer">
footer contents
</div><!-- /footer -->
</div><!-- /wrapper -->

    This forces me to make sure all the divs are closed. HTH. 😉

    I looked and I looked and I didn’t see an open div, but I stuck one in anyway and it worked. 🙂 WOOHOO!

    Thanks!
